So I got my S4 up and running on Ting and got CM13 running on it, was having the LTE issues and flashed the .zip for MVNO and got my lte working so that was fine. Everything was great but than I realized that when I'm at home (where I have very weak signal) that the network would drop out and it would just say no service and stay that way until I rebooted, than everything would be good again for a few minutes until it lost service again and it would not pick it back up. I flashed back to stock using odin and even though I would have very weak signal it would never fully drop the network and I could still receive calls. The phone is running on OK3, I tried the OCTOS CM13 rom and had the same problem. Haven't tried any AOSP or any other Touch wiz roms yet to see if the problem persists just because work hasn't afforded me the time to mess with it. I was curious if anyone else had these same issues though or if there was anything I could edit in the system files to get it to reconnect to the network after it drops it. I will note as well that when I'm at work where I have a strong cellular signal I don't have this problem at all, it's just when the network falls out it won't pick it back up again. I figure it has to be something simple that can be corrected but I don't have the experience or knowledge to even begin to know where to look and after almost a week of searching these forums and google I haven't been able to find an answer or a similar problem. Any help or guidance would be hugely appreciated.
Yes I feel your pain. I've been experiencing this issue also and have yet to find a fix. I did see that someone reported that they don't have the issue with the R1 build of OctOs. I have yet to test this but I hope it will fix the issue.

Well at least now I know I am not the only one! I'll keep searching for an answer and try a few other roms that aren't CM based and see if I can find some sort of solution that isn't running rooted stock firmware. Ideally something MM based. Also if you could link to the thread where someone else reported a similar problem that would be great. Let me know if you find a solution before I do, one has to exist I'm sure.
So I saw towards the end of the octos thread where other people have been reporting the same issue with CM13 and OCTOS, found the R1 version of octos, will give it a try and report back. Hopefully CM13 catches wind and can trace back to whatever it is that is causing this issue as well, I might try one of the newer CM13 nightlies and see if maybe the problem hasn't been remedied but I'm not holding my breath :-/ I just really want MM back.
So update, I installed the R1 version of octos and the "no network" issue has not reared its head again yet. I Flashed the buzzbeemvno fix as well afterwards and one thing I did notice, before the mvno flash I was getting 3g signal with the sprint profile, once I flashed over to the ting profile it was only pulling 1x as far as signal is concerned. I don't really mind though since I have a solid wifi signal at home and the main goal here was to just have reliable signal to receive calls and texts when I ought to.
Give this APN a shot. It's the one I'm using currently. I think I may need to make some adjustments still, but it seems to work well enough so far.
It's also usually a good idea to reboot into recovery and delete the telephony.db and telephony.db-journal files in /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/ after you have replaced the apns-conf.xml. The system will recreate those files on startup using the new data.
Blaises are you running that APN pack on the newer cm13 builds?
I'm running the APN I linked earlier rather than the MVNO fix., and I'm using it on OctOS R1 which is a CM13 build from March.
I'm using Ting on the Sprint network.
Can I get your opinion on oct-os? Is it a daily driver ROM? Did you guys stay on the ROM? Any advice for me or warnings?
Sent from my KIW-L24 using XDA-Developers mobile app
So I am on the older build of octos from the spring, it's been a great daily driver gives me almost no problems. There has been an occasional Bluetooth hiccup and camera hiccups. But maybe once a month, overall it's been a great ROM.

I have tried many times now to use CM or ASOP roms and their like and I find that I consistently have the same problem: no phone calls in (I would boot the rom and then call my cell from my house), can't hang up after a phone call and lousy GPS.
I don't have these problems when using a stock (Touch Wiz) based ROM.
Why is this?
Clearly it's a software issue, what could possibly be missing in the various roms that would make this happen?

I'm running team acheron's super s4 right now and I therefore cannot update the prl or profile,
I'm international right now (in Israel) and I therefore used the radio unlock method from the forum here to unlock to phone for GSM and UMTS usage.

Has anyone experienced this problem and has suggestions as to how to fix it?
Thanks
I flash a LOT of roms. Sometimes two or three a day. (I am going to meetings but I will always be a flashaholic.) I am almost constantly on AOSP because I do not like how clunky TW feels and there are about three or four things an AOSP rom does easily that you cannot do easily or at all on TW. I have had all of the problems you mentioned at one time or another but never all at once. When I first bought my SG4 and started flashing roms the GPS was a big issue but that problem is pretty much nonexistent now. The same with the inability to make a call. I have not seen that in awhile. I recently flashed a rom that I thought was running perfectly until I made a phone call and could not get the phone to hang up. I had to reboot to get the phone to disconnect. That was the first and only rom I have had that problem with. I think I reinstalled it a few days later after it had been updated and it worked fine.
Other things I have noticed is that Google's voice recongition does not work as well on AOSP roms and there can sometimes be a problem with MMS.
I say all of this to say that first, these roms are in development. They are not perfect. They sometimes have problems. If a rom has a glitch you cannot live with, go to a different rom.
Next, you have to follow the installation instructions to the letter. If it says to stand on one foot while installing the rom do it. I have seen some roms that have really weird install instruction but if you do not do it, the rom is not going to work. Acheron's Super S4 has you use specific recoveries and reboot into recovery. That is a little odd.
Next, if you feel you are constantly having these problems with all AOSP roms, which is odd, try flashing a stable version. CM has milestones. I know Liquid Smooth has an official 3.1 that is supposed to be very stable. See if you have these problems are more stable versions and instead of nightlys.
Next, I have seen people on the exact same model phone and carrier have greatly different experience with a rom. Individual phones seems to have their own quirks you have to learn. I believe most of this type of issue though is user error and you just don't realize you are doing something wrong.
Finally, the one thing I know nothing about is unlocking your phone for the international version. I wonder if that has anything to do with your problems.
Good luck and don't give up!
Hi buddies
As Grarak chose to close the thread of his rom and that maybe some of you want to have some more return and exchanges about the way the rom works, discuss about bugs etc, i open this thread, so that we will be able to do what a forum is done for : talk and exchange together.
New version is 12082014, any return?
Testing soon..
Is calling with sim 2 in 2g working Now?
If not how to use it Any tetsters!

i 've had terrible battery life, and searching on google lead me to a battery misc processus eating battery, problem solved with 5.0.1 by google
do you guys have the same experience, and have heard about a fix incorporation in the new builds? :good:
I had to go all the way back to the 11-20-14 build. I tried updating to the new builds 12-8, 12-9 and 12-10. No data at all on any of these builds.
Flashed the newest build! We're on Lollipop 5.0.1 now This update is supposed to help battery life. We'll see.
The new music app automaticaly force closes, and the DSPmanager was replaced with AudioFX.
thank you guys for these feedbacks.
Foxy, when you say the new music app, you mean the cyanogenmod one? strange, what could have change ?
Audio playback is fixed now ?

I don't know? It's just called "Music" but the icon is like a poorly designed not lollipop looking purple circle. But Apollo is gone so I suppose that's it. And audio playback works, just the app crashes right when I open it.

Ok, the ROM was going great for me, then yesterday at work my phone turned off when it was in my pocket. I tried turning it on, it booted, started doing the boot animation and then did that for five minutes before it shut off again. This time it wouldn't turn back on no matter how many times i tried power cycling or booting into bootloader. When I got home I tried charging it and the light wouldn't even come on. So I plugged it into my PC and the phone showed up as qhsusb_bulk. After researching that i found it means the bootloader got wiped somehow. My question is, how could my bootloader be gone, because as far as I know, no one has gotten their device S-OFF.
your device is bricked
seems there is a solution on the web but not working for everybody and for specific devices
i dont know what to advice you...
i dont know if it is rom related, but if it is, i wont flash this !
Yes that's what i figured. Luckily Amazon was nice enough to give me a new phone once I send that one in. I was just trying to figure out how it would even be possible that my bootloader got fried, considering my device was still S-ON.
any one who tried this rom found any bugs ???????? i want to know the bugs and want to know in htc 816 daul the second sim worked or not

I'm on a single sim Virgin Mobile variant here. There are bugs, yes. This is basically an alpha going into beta of lollipop. There is no one else developing anything new for this device so this is our best bet yet. Aside for some minor niggles here and there, this ROM is very workable as a daily driver. I would recommend a backup, and try this one out. I like it a lot. Grarak is quite amazing actually, many thanks owed.

Didn't test it. Haven't spent enough time on Lollipop because of the no data issue.
I've been playing around with the lastest builds, and I'm actually getting LTE to work without modifying anything, I just have to let it sit for a WHILE and it connects and works quite well.
HOWEVER, I have been getting a corrupt data partition issue with some non-google play apks. I assume that since the build are already not stable, adding homemade, root apks that modify data might cause some corruption. I'll keep playing with it and report back any further updates on how this may be happening.

Yah data works...just not good. It has to do with not being able to access APN's.
No one want's to sit "for a WHILE" to open a webpage or read an email.
On the latest build, System UI crashes.
So i've tried pretty much every ROM out and wanted to post my findings with Call reception,data issues, APNs, etc and see if anyone else on Sprint has workarounds or advice on how to fix issues. On some ROMs i can get data but can't get calls/texts. On others i can get voice and data and hear people fine while on calls, but they tell me i'm breaking up constantly.
ROMs with voice and data, but poor voice delivery while on calls:
Resurrection Remix
AOKP
Turbo ROM
Temasek(i think...been awhile since i've flashed and can't remember)
Roms with data(sometimes) but cant make calls/texts:
PureNexus
DirtyUnicorn
ROMs with working data and good call quality:
AICP
Mokee
TruPureX(yes, i know it's not a custom ROM just putting it here because there are no issues with call reception or data on Sprint)
I believe if we were able to manually set APNs for some of these ROMs we could possibly correct this issue but for some reason the majority of ROMs i've flashed say "APN settings are not available for this user". Does anyone know a workaround for this issue? Please post other ROMs that i haven't commented on or other findings/workarounds
I know this is a long shot since this is an old post, but I was curious if you ever found anything on this? I had gone through a bunch of the ROMs mentioned and had the same experience. The only ROM I have had success with and has been almost flawless is Turbo. Yet I have the calling issue where everyone says I'm choppy and cut out so I am having to switch again. Everything else except TruePure I have had data issues with. LTE seems to drop and then I have nothing, it's almost like it can't hand off to 3g. Then I have no signal at all.
I'd go with the stock ROM, but that just has some horrible lag when operating. If I could pull whatever make Turbo work over to another ROM that would be great, but I've never set anything like that up.
Can it be a problem if you are using a XT1572 or XT1575? Maybe you need to be ROM specific when it comes to your device model.
This is the most annoying problem. At this point most roms I try have everything but 4g.
I'm New to the forums here everyone.

I'm running NRD90U but I'm experiencing some issues with the recent radio update that came with nougat on Verizon. I've searched everywhere on the xda forums and found suggestions to others experiencing similar issues (simultaneous voice and data). With the 03.61 radio, everything worked just fine whereas with 03.72 I have to toggle airplane mode after every reboot in order to have simultaneous voice and data. I have performed all of the suggested things to no avail. HD voice is enabled on my line and I've tried taking it off and putting it back on. Enhanced LTE is set to on and I've toggled that. I've factory data reset. I've wiped cache. I've Tested SIM in another Verizon device and it works fine. I've Put another Verizon SIM in my device and still have the issue. I even gotten a new replacement device. I've sideloaded OTAs. I've flashed factory images. I've literally tried everything suggested here.
All said, I'm wondering if it's possible to flash the older 03.61 radio while keeping everything otherwise the same on my phone with stock Nougat-NRD90U.
I would appreciate input.
Thanks.

If you are bootloader unlocked, you can fastboot flash any radio.img you want. If you are not bootloader unlocked, no you can't. The radio.img is universal btw, not specific to a carrier.
Edit: the guide below will help you unlock the bootloader and learn fastboot if you are unfamiliar.

Thanks. I will do that. I appreciate the help.
Is this a problem for other Verizon users too? If so, I just won't upgrade the radio firmware on mine either.
I would highly suspect that the problem is for everybody on Verizon especially since I replaced my device and did all this SIM card changes and things. It is very unnoticeable in that the only time you experience it or see it is if you are making a call on the new nougat radio 03.72, you will see the LTE icon disappear as soon as you make your call, regardless of whether you are on an 'HD call' or not. If you are on the older radio 03.61 that is on marshmallow, then you never experience that problem, ever, ever. Everything is perfect with that "radio." I've done a lot of testing on it, as I said, up to replacing my device, all to no avail. unless using 03.61 which is again, perfect. I wouldn't change if you can avoid it. If you do get the nougat radio though (03.72), it's a nuisance because after the majority of reboots overall, you will come up with everything normal-'looking' with the LTE icon there but when trying to make a call it will disappear and you'll have an exclamation point there until you hang up from the call and LTE comes right back. (unless you're on wifi off course in which case none of this apples). The solution if you find yourself with the 03.72 nougat radio with this happening, is to toggle airplane mode and then you're good to go until the next time you have to reboot. I always check afterwards by calling voicemail to make sure the LTE icon stays while on the call. It will disappear immediately.
I'm going to assume there is some sort of an "initial-boot-handshake" that's not taking place correctly, but DOES communicate correctly coming out of airplane mode when the device is already booted.

Edit: This may be a regional VZW issue and not a phone or baseband issue.
Verizon has had issues where I live for more than a week.
I live in Northern Ca and they just sorted things out.
Funny, I flashed the Nougat radio on top of 6.x to see if my issue was fixed.
It's not the radio. Mine is finally stable. Not sure what VZW did.

Everything was working fine on mine with the marshmallow radio. I didn't have an issue until I updated to nougat.
Hearing what happened with yours makes me think that it's a regional Verizon thing. Hopefully they will fix soon. I'm not holding my breath because it's been about a month here in Central Kentucky
I'm glad yours is working now man.
Cheers!
I'm having a similar problem for the last couple days after flashing the latest update. I may try stepping back to the older radio to see if that fixes my problem. I just hope it doesn't affect my bluetooth, as that's finally working fine again.

Best of luck. Let us know how it goes if you get the chance. Thanks!
Holy crap, I thought it was just me! I did the exact same things (minus an RMA) as the OP to fix the issue with no luck, even downgrading to MTC20F and upgrading to MTC20L and finally Nougat, just to make sure something wasn't getting jacked in the flashing process. I spent an hour on the phone last night w/ a tier 2 tech guys from Verizon and the only issue he could see was that my PRL had an update for my SIM which should happen automatically. He pushed it through from their end but it didn't fix the issue. Normally I don't care about browsing/downloading when I'm on the phone since I hate talking on the phone and get off as soon as possible but it causes another problem which is not acceptable: if I am browsing chrome or doing anything with data, incoming calls go straight to voicemail. Tried switching the phone from "global" to "LTE/CDMA" with no luck-a reboot always kills simultaneous voice and data. I can rule out this being a Verizon issue on my end as when I flashed the MM images to update via OTA this morning, all worked perfectly fine.
Edit: I have called multiple people in my area that are on VZW after having them reboot their phones and all of them maintained simultaneous voice and data. I think it is safe to state that this issue is software/device specific.

I have done and agree with what you said - other devices(non NEXUS 6p) work fine and 6p works fine on marshmallow. However, tech_head posted above that his I'd all good now and that it was a Verizon issue. I'm not sure where you live but based on tech_head's post, I can't rule out VZW as the problem. One thing is for sure it is an issue here in Central Kentucky on the two NEXUS 6ps that I have had and tried EVERYTHING, like you, on both of them to no avail without marshmallow radio. I haven't tried flashing marshmallow radio on top of nougat. I may just wait and see if VZW or Google work something out to fix it soon with a possible update. Not holding my breath but I believe it will eventually get fixed in the future, OFFICIALLY.
Thanks man.
I appreciate your input.

As mentioned earlier in the thread, the radio is independent of the OS version, so why not take 1 or 2 minutes and flash an earlier radio? There is a radio / modem repository thread on XDA with all versions you can just grab and try out. Literally takes less than a minute and if you don't like the results, then just flash it right back. I use Fastboot, but TWRP, FF, NRT, etc. all work equally well. You may also post what you find under "Phone Settings" when typing " *#*#4636#*#* " into the dialer. Report back on your findings.
Here are the screenshot links for my phone settings.

No problem bud! I haven't flashed another radio yet either. I will report back after I test a few more things.
Has anyone determined the cause of the problem? Was it the radio firmware after all? There seem to be conflicting answers here.

It is still kind of up in the air. What I do know is that there is a software incompatibility somewhere within nougat here in Lexington, KY, at least. I assume it's the radio software but I'm not certain. I'm not bootloader unlocked at this point so I haven't yet tried to flash marshmallow radio on to stock nougat. I will probably try this in a few days when I have the time to deal with the factory reset it involves. Please refer back to the original post for questions about my reasoning.
It's quite interesting, the problem, as everything with stock nougat - voice and data-wise, works just like marshmallow after I toggle airplane mode after reboot. With marshmallow, it just worked. Very weird. But given I can just toggle airplane mode 1 time for every time I boot, it's just a slight nuisance. Once I toggle airplane mode, everything is good just like marshmallow, as if nothing was ever wrong. It could be something about the boot sequence. It's very interesting. I'm open to ideas at this point.
Thanks.
My 2¢
When i was on 6.0.1 didn't have and issue with radio. i flashed the 7.0 radio while still on 6.0.1, still no issues.
Then i flashed 7.0 OS and that's when the issue started and it was only affecting upload speed download was great. Then i flashed the last radio from 6.0.1 and the issue went away.
P.S.
the data going off during a call is VZW. i had to call to have them fix this even before 7.0 they dont like the fact that we are using a non vzw branded cell.
I'm back on 6.0.1, never signed on to be a beta tester for 7.0?. These days its about profit and quantity and the hell with quality

Then i flashed 7.0 OS and that's when the issue started and it was only affecting upload speed download was great. Then i flashed the last radio from 6.0.1 and the issue went away.
P.S.
the data going off during a call is VZW. i had to call to have them fix this even before 7.0 they dont like the fact that we are using a non vzw branded cell.
I'm back on 6.0.1, never signed on to be a beta tester for 7.0?. These days its about profit and quantity and the hell with quality

I appreciate your input. It doesn't sound like our issues are quite the same. I'm not sure though.
What is it that Verizon did for you. That may be the answer to my problems.
Thanks. Best Regsrds.
This has been happening for a couple months. Seems like a couple times a day I lose my data connection, and the only fix is to reboot. After that it's fine for a while, until it drops again...
Running rooted 6.0.1, radio version 3.61. Anything I can check? Or should I just flash a new image?
I have this issue, flashing different radios did nothing for me. The hardware is just going bad I think
Been having the same issue for a couple months now, going to my carrier for a new SIM and resetting APN did nothing. Thought it was my ROM at first and ended up flashing a few different ones along with kernels, it was never fixed. Data drops and comes back about 10 minutes later, every half hour or so. Seems to not effect calling or messaging, only data. Is this a confirmed hardware issue?
My wife and I both had our 6P's doing this as well. Seems like the device will get in a connection loop or something. the WiFi drops, then my 4g data signal, then both are out, then WiFi turns on, Data turns on, then repeats the process. I usually reboot, or toggle airplane mode off and on to stop it. Its periodic, but it doesn't last long on my end. I'm on T-Mobile BTW
UPDATE - REFER YOU TO THIS LINK. Looks like radio files from Android O Beta DP4 are confirmed to fix the T-Mobile Cell Signal Bug
Hopefully, this means our prayers have been answered

My radio didn't drop once on the way to work today, hell, it's still going right now. I actually think it's been fixed
is it ok to apply the updated radio without upgrading android (staying on 6.0.1)? i heard there have been some issues with 7.x on the Nexus?

I do not know its comptibility with 6.0.1 - you could just make a backup and give it a try.
conversely I must say - Nougat on good ROMs is stable and gets good battery life. What are you concerns with just joining the party here on Nougat?

I'm running rooted stock android. Haven't made the move to any custom ROMs yet. I recall when Nougat first landed people were reporting some issues with it on the 6P (battery life? instability?).
That being said I'm open to loading a Nougat ROM if it's gonna be stable. Is there any consensus on top ROM for the 6P (something close to stock android experience)?
Close to stock with aroma installable features, check superxe rom, you can choose between nougat or Android O.
